  2. 2026.23.0 Update Pushed to R1

    It was pushed to my R1S. The installation failed. It is now "unpushed". Not available.
  3. 2026.23.0 Update Pushed to R1

    I received the notification. It would not install. The app says it's preparing for awhile, then it stops. R1S gen 2 Quad. It's plugged into a Level 2 charger. Reports good cellular and Wi-Fi connections.
  4. Charging R1T at 30amp RV site Question

    Let me clarify. These types ov adapters are safe when used for their intended purpose. They are dangerous in the sense that they can cause damage if used inappropriately--at home for example.
  5. Charging R1T at 30amp RV site Question

    You need an adapter. It's an unusual adapter. It's sort of dangerous. Here's why: The 50 amp connector is wired for 240 V between the the line terminals--there is no neutral conductor--the 3rd pin is safety ground. The 30 A connector at the RV site likely has 120 V between each of the line...
  6. R1 Update. Remember those?

    I'm happy that Rivian does lots of testing before releasing major updates.
  7. Long road trip? Drive faster for less total travel time

    Good point Ihave the impression that charging stations along those stretches are in short supply. You have to divert to a town to find one.
  8. Bye Bye Alexa - being retired from Rivians as of August 4, 2026

    Yes it's true. The channels are not named the same. Another clue is that the pandors channels descriptions say only music or continuous music os something like that.Only some of the Pandora channels are available. Really!
  9. Long road trip? Drive faster for less total travel time

    There are long stretches of I15 in Utah with speed limit of 80 MPH.
  10. Bye Bye Alexa - being retired from Rivians as of August 4, 2026

    Since Serius and Pandora merged, many of the pandora channels are available on Serious. Look for "Extra" channels.
  11. Displaying Launch mode results.

    On a quad, you can record a special video of your launch trial. The video has the speed distance, time to 60, and quarter mile times superimposed. See the manual.
  12. Charging cable port cleaning.

    Yes it is. If the charger and vehicle are working properly, no high voltages are present on the power connectors when the connectors are being connected and disconnected to prevent arcs. The lock is to keep you from disnonnecteng with the power on. The connectors have temperature sensors to...
  13. Looking for best and most cost effective garage charger

    The Rivian wall charger is rugged, good looking, and weatherproof. It's also dumb as a post, has a non standard proprietary API and it is way overpriced. It does link to the Rivian mobile app, but cant control anything and the information is useless.Buy something else. If you have a Tesla...
  14. 2023 R1T: Paint bubbling on door. Rust bubble? Is this covered by warranty?

    I thought all models had aluminum door panels My gen 2 R1S Quad Launch Edition does. I checked with a magnet. Is there something that I don't know about rust bubbles?
  15. Rivian Assistant very slow

    Rivian Assistant currently does its thinking on a server in the cloud. The latency depends on the quality of your internet connection. It doesn't work at all if the car has no internet connection. This will change when the R2 gets the advanced AI processor. Rivian Assistant will then do much of...
  16. Would love to see Rivian put LIDAR on the R1 first!

    Introducing LIDAR will likely require the accumulation of a great deal of training data in order to realize its full potential. Accumulating that data will be faster if there are more vehicles providing it. Hence the R2 is rhe better choice. Besides, the R2 already has the provisions for LIDAR...
  17. wiring needs for V2H vs level 2 charger?

    You can have a limited number of bends or degrees of bends and still pull wire through a conduit. With buried conduit, pulling Ls and junctions are not possible, so pulling cable later is impossible. Most available Level 2 chargers will not accept heavier wire. There's no room in the terminals...
  18. Rivians been busy - Price Ut and Walsenburg, CO RANs are also operational!

    For those not familiar to Utah, Price is on the route to Moab, Arches, Capital Reef, and Canyonlands.
  19. What’s in Your Rivian Wash Kit? Here’s Mine. 🫧🧽🛻

    I take my R1S to the local DIY car wash. It has stealth PPF and cerami coating. I don't use the high pressure rinse, high pressure wash, foam brush, wax, or blow dry features. I do use the low pressure rinse, low pressure foam pre-rinse nozzle and the spot-free rinse. I just don't pull the...
